I stand in the hallway for a moment, thinking if I could skip this class again, by myself. I mean, it would be weird just showing up in the class, wouldn't it? Well, no other teacher had asked why I was missing for a while quarter. But maybe that one day would make it weird. But that english teacher only noted how I was late. Did the teacher mean late, as in a quarter and a day late..?

I hardly noticed how much I had begun to overthink and spiral until a girl with light pink hair speaks to me,

"Excuse me, but, uhm, do you know where the art room is? I'm kind of new here..."

I smile at her, like a silent 'thanks' for snapping me out of... whatever that was.

"No, I unfortunately don't, but I'm new here too, we can look together, right?"

I said, trying to keep my tone from sounding pushy or creepy.

"Oh, sure! I'm Niki, by the way!"

"Ah, I'm Y/N! Nice to meet you, Niki!"

We walk around for a bit, walking past the art room, I'm sure, at least once. But eventually find it before we're considered late.

"Ah, Hello, looking at my attendance, you two are... Niki and Y/N, right?"

Niki nods, and I copy her, the teacher falls back in his chair before spinning around and looking at the two of us standing awkwardly, awaiting direction on where to sit, for some reason.

"Ah, right; does anyone want to sit with Niki and Y/N?"

A tall person in the middle of the class raises their hand, smiling lightly at the two of us.

"Okay then, You two sit with Eret, he can tell you what we're doing, I guess."

We walk over and take our seats, Niki sits beside the guy, Eret, apparently, and I sit across from her.

"Hello!"

"Oh."

The word slips from my mouth before I can stop it, his voice is deeper than I had expected. I cover my mouth with my hand right after, wishing I had done that before I said something stupid. He and Niki both giggle at my mistake, but probably because I was laughing too. While I was distracted by this, the teacher had began to pass out chunks of grey-brown clay.

Honestly, if it weren't for the noise it made as it hit the table, I wouldn't have noticed it. But no, I definitely noticed it, I had jumped at the noise.

"So I guess we're doing this, heh?"

I jokingly say, looking to Eret, but Niki 'responds' instead.

"I want to make frogs."

I laugh at how seriously she made herself sound.

"What if we all made similar things? Like had a theme?"

"Can the theme be animals? I want to make a flamingo."

"I'm gonna make a duck."

I said, and we all started to make what we could with the clay. When the teacher started to tell us we had only a few minutes, the three of us decided to show eachother what we had done.

When Niki showed hers, it was a surprisingly really good little frog.

"Aww, look at the little froooooggg!"

I said, then looking at Eret's, it was a flamingo, that carried a much smaller flamingo on it's back. He tried to scoop his arms under the piece of cardboard or wood, I wasnt sure what it was, it was on, but it slipped and fell-

Right onto the floor.

[A/N; it was never meant to be-)

"Ohh no, Eret-"

"It was really good though, better than..."

I looked over at mine, hesitant to acknowledge it. Niki covered her mouth with her hand and Eret laughed a little.

"Y/N... did you just like... poke at it..?"

I laughed a little too hard at that comment,

"I mean, they look a little like ducks!"

"They look 'a little' like anything, Y/N, you didn't do anything.."

I laughed, neither of them were wrong, really. But eventually, after our long time of joking, our few minutes were over and class was ending. Niki had gotten an A, Eret had a B, but only because he had dropped his, and I got...

"Oh no, Y/N, a D is really low..."

I nodded with a look that I'm sure conveyed that I really didnt mind.

"Do either of you want to hang out la-"

"I have double detention, I cant."

"How did you get...?"

"Can't explain it now, I have to go before I get triple detention!"

[A/N; big pog to my friend who helped write the outline of this section, and a good chunk of the next maybe two, I'm glad she helped out or else I would've been completely stuck.]
